How does Radio Shack know if you checked in or not on Google Places? Do you just show them your phone?

Most FourSquare deals you have to show your phone to the bartender, waiter or barista to get a special.

I tried showing my local radio shack my phone with the discount and they had no idea what foursquare was or how to enter the discount.
